Hey man... type this into a google search box "complete MAME 0.78 roms"... then click on the the first result. It should be what you need. :-)

Yes, while you are in emulation station, you can hit the start button on your controller (I'm assuming here that your controller is setup correctly) then select "quit" which will load the next menu with several options, the first of which should be "restart emulation station"... select that and when ES restarts, your ROMs lists should be refreshed. :-)

@purehippo said in Neo Geo Setup:

@rbaker How can i tell if i have the correct neogeo.zip? Also how do i tell if the roms are correct? Do i need the UNIBIOS for lr-fba-next to work right? I dont believe i have gotten this file.

There is no way to tell from a single file in my experience, you are in trial and error mode. It's best to locate and download a full set from one of the many sources out there on the web and start from there. A full set could be anywhere from 2GB to 50GB depending on the version. Best get a 0.78 set to begin with as that will work with lr-mame-2003

I've bought this one : http://www.futuremax.eu/nl/impact-soft-dancemat-pc-usb-dansmat-van-positive.html
Tried it using my pi (model 3) and retropie 4.0. ES immediately recognized it and after configuring the button's , it worked like a charm on DDR and DDR Konamix on the psx emulator.

I haven't noticed any delay and the inputs work nicely

@Floob It's nano editor way to say "this line continues" :-)

Are you using RetroPie 4?
It looks like you have updated some keys for the keyboard in your /all/retroarch.cfg file.
The defaults should be:
http://pastebin.com/raw/WrvnD9Gh

You can copy that to your file to test.

But it may well be the controller file that is having issues, can you post that on pastebin?
It should be in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/

This will also help:

Thank you for your answer.
What exactly are the problems with the current kernel there? Could you maybe point me to the relevant discussion?

I do confirm issue with the deletion of the kick roms is now gone (either via binary or source options). Yet I still having issue with the controls. I'll keep checking in the coming days to see if upstream got fixes. Though the binary option from RP doesn't help and I'm really puzzled by that.

I'll give another look soon. THANKS.

@edmaul69 said in DOSBox - saving? Write permissions...?:

@BuZz the problem i have with dosbox is you get a "disk is write protected" error if you dont have better permissions on the right files, but how can you tell which files are the save files that need more permissions or not? I agree with you that you dont want to do it with everything but in the case of dosbox i dont know any way around it. And games wont even run for me if i dont give more permissions to the .exe files.

I would need to see some example of a path to advise (showing the current permissions).

Thank you!

Changed

input_driver = "udev"
To
input_driver = "sdl"

On configs including controller cfg, now it works!
The retroarch on "udev" reconfigure the controller i guess to wrong mapping?

Thanks to everybody

This fix worked PERFECTLY. Thank you to all the experts

It was a fresh install yes. I did have the xbox driver installed for a while but then ended up uninstalling that reverting back to xpad. I dont know if that helps. As far as editing config files directly the only thing i did was in relation to that xbox driver to flip A and B for nes games. That has been reverted with no ill affects i can tell and like i said the xbox driver uninstalled and reverted back to xpad.

@BuZz All is working now, "should of gone to Specsavers".

My apologies @BuZz wasted your time :(

Please read this info:

Also, please post this file on pastebin
/opt/retropie/configs/nes/retroarch.cfg

Thank you!!! It worked with a little modification. U rock!

# Settings made here will only override settings in the global retroarch.cfg if placed above the #include line input_remapping_directory = "/opt/retropie/configs/gameandwatch/" input_player1_x_axis = "-3" input_player1_b_axis = "+3" #include "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg"

@BuZz said in Screensaver/sleep mode - how to exit without keyboard?:

setterm --blank 0

About the consoleblank=0, I just add that on the next line below in cmdline.txt, right?
I tried adding the setterm --blank 0 in autostart.sh and it still did it, though this time I just stayed at the menu instead of updating all installed packages like it did before, after 5 minutes the screen blanks out and the controller no longer responds and I have to use the keyboard.
